Chapter 776

"The heck are you talking about, Ma? Young Master Drake deserved a beating. Anyway, what's over is

over. I don’t think Fane did anything wrong. He helped me to release my anger—that's why he beat

Young Master Drake up!”

Selena was extremely angry when she heard what her mother said. She snarled at

Fiona.

"I wouldn't want that to happen to you either, Selena. But he’s from the Drake family. Offending them is

like signing your death certificate!"

Fiona was truly worried.

"What's going on, Ma?"

Ben and Andrew walked out and asked,

their expressions furrowed in concern.

Fiona released a sigh and shot Fane a vicious glare. "I just heard that this fellow had gone and beaten

the young master of the Drake family up," she explained to Ben. "Isn't it infuriating? I heard that Young

Master Drake is still being hospitalized, and his condition is uncertain!”

"No way. Weren't you being a little brash. Fane? We understand why you spoke against him in the first

place—you did it for the ten billion bucks, right? Even if speaking against him would mean

embarrassing him in front of everyone.

And of course, Young Master Drake did go overboard by firing Selena as well!"

Andrew stepped forward, his brows drawing together. "But it's too much, isn't it, beating up a young

master just because of that?" he continued, "They even offered the

two of you, jobs in the first place. They're stronger than some first-class aristocratic families. Aren't you

afraid that they'll destroy the entire Taylor family?"

"That's right!"

Fiona interjected immediately, "So shouldn't we chase him out now? He invited disaster upon himself.

He shouldn’t drag us into it!"

Ben spoke up after thinking for a while, "M a, it's true that Fane was being rash, but he did lash out for

Selena’s sake. We don't have much choice now. The past is all in the past. All of us should just leave

together. I think James Drake won’t let us off that easily no matter what we say since his son has been

beaten up. We can’t just single Fane out. The rest of us won't be able to escape either!” "That's right.

Why don't we all leave

together? It hurts my heart to think of leaving this villa, but we can bring our valuables along with us.novelbin

Most of our money is in the bank anyway that can be easily accessed with our cards!"

Fiona instantly suggested, realizing that Ben's words made sense.

"Don't be afraid, Father, Mother. They won't come to us looking for trouble!”

Fane flashed a bitter smile as he watched everyone fly into panic mode. "Think about it. I brought

Selena along last night and caused a ruckus for them. They would have done something about it

yesterday if they really wanted to retaliate. Furthermore, it’s already this late into the morning, but they

haven't sent anyone over. Do you really think they'll come? If you do, wouldn't they be scared that we

would take off sooner?”

Realization dawned upon Ben when he heard Fane's words. "You're right. If they really wanted to find

trouble with us, they probably would have done so yesterday night or this morning. They wouldn't have

waited until now."

"Hmm. That's true..."

Andrew also seemed to realize that the idea made sense.

"But I really think that the Drake family won't let us off so easily. It's possible that they prioritized

sending Young Master Drake to the hospital because he was so badly injured. Maybe they’ve already

sealed off all the roads leading out of the city. We probably won't even have a chance to escape. They'll

come for us once their young master has fully recovered!”

Fiona was still fearful-to the point that her imagination began to run wild.

"Ma, all this actually happened because Young Master Drake tried to take advantage of me. He was a

little drunk last night when he came into the office, and he tried to get all touchy. Fane only beat him u p

after he knew about this! I believe that even the Drake family themselves would think that this was

rational. Besides, Fane i s so strong. It’s likely they won't cause trouble for us!"

Selena cast a side-glance at Fane, then she explained everything in his place. She did not want him to

bear the responsibility alone.

"What? That Young Master Drake actually tried to..."

Only then did Fiona understand that Fane had beaten Young Master Drake up for other reasons, and

not because of the job-relatedrelated incident
